#5 Traditional Wedding Cake With Green Ribbon
All it takes is a small touch to make a traditional wedding cake come to life. Each of the three tiers on this wedding cake is wrapped at the base with beautiful green ribbon. It's a simple touch but it adds so much to the feel of the reception. Also, green drew out the color of the leaves used in the floral decorations.
Another great touch makes this wedding cake a favorite. The top outer edge of each tier is lined with pearl drops of buttercream icing. On top of layers of flavor, this is a beautiful look and an even better taste.

#4 Wedding Cake With Red Ribbon On Unique Platter
Not only is this a stand-out cake because of the scarlet ribbon used on each tier, it's also a favorite because of the unique platter on which it rests. Small or larger, elaborate cake platters make a world of difference to a traditional wedding cake which typically does not feature the kind of across-the-room eye-catching designs of other wedding cakes.

#3 Four Tiers Fondant Wedding Cake
Many tiers are always a helpful way to personalize the wedding cake because the sheer height of the cake grabs attention quickly. This four tiered round wedding cake is completely covered in white rolled fondant. Each tier has pearl icing accents for an extra touch. Another stand-out feature are the edible wedding cake flowers used as a cake topper. What a neat addition!

#2 Wedding Cake With Pearl Icing Accents
"Beautiful" is the only way to describe this fantastic traditional wedding cake. It's not color or height that draws the eye to this cake. It's not a unique platter or cake topper. It's the design all of it's own and that's why it is a favorite traditional wedding cake for September. Each of the three tiers is covered in a delicious buttercream icing and given extra appeal with pearl icing designs up and down the sides of each tier. How beautiful!

#1 Precious Moments Wedding Cake
If ever there were a moment for fanfare, this would be it. This traditional wedding cake veers a bit from the most traditional and uses a few classic accents to give it a personal touch. For starters, there are four tiers of wedding cake covered in buttercream icing. Yum! Next a different icing pattern is used on each layer.
To top it all off and make this cake #1 on the list, this cake has a Precious Moments cake topper. Talk about a fun way to personalize any wedding cake! Brides marrying now are very familiar with Precious Moments and other unique licensed characters. Adding their likeness to the wedding cake topper is a great way to make the cake truly feel like it belongs to you..

I love all of the creative and over-the-top wedding cake designs we're seeing these days, but there is definitely something to be said for a simple/traditional cake. Sometimes going with the traditional makes a statement of its own.
